Abstract

We have realized an experiment aimed atunderstanding the impact of distribution on time andquality of code developed with pair programming. Fromthis experimental data's analysis the pair dismissalphenomenon has stemmed. After the experiment, we haveconducted an assessment discussion guided by aquestionnaire. The assessment confirmed the dismissalhypothesis and highlighted knowledge needs to beaddressed when managing distributed pair programmingin software projects. This paper focuses on the results ofthe assessment and discusses the lessons learned.
